use in built achievement tracker

VERY interesting.

Not sure if it is good for long lists but might help for some of the short ones. see https://wow.curseforge.com/addons/zoneachievementtracker/

first version:

if tracked achievements > 0 do nothing else if first achievement added to screen and not 'takes up too much space'* then start tracking

if achievement is contextual (zone/dungeon/etc) remove when appropriate

*determine if achievement 'takes up too much space'. This is down to whether or not it has a long list of criteria e.g. explore, or if its just a number e.g. zone quests. First draft can use http://wowprogramming.com/docs/api/GetAchievementNumCriteria to only count those with 0 or 1 criterion.

started to work now:

• outputs up to two achs.
• only outputs those without too many criteria

still to do

• doesn't remove them ever (unless ach gained?!)
• don't display them in main list

[paulbrock]

some achs don't track well - e.g. quests per zone when already completed on character - doesn't show counter. Need to identify and eliminate these.

[paulbrock]

good also do with elimating the zone quests that aren't immediately relevant.
